Introducing the ‘Historic Hobart Wallsworth House’, to keep on your radar for filmings/photoshoots. This is a Mills Act (historically protected) home is in mid city/ Los Angeles CA, in the HPOZ (historic preservation overlay zone) of Harvard Heights, which is sandwiched between west Adams and Koreatown. It’s a cute historic pocket, filled with a lot of historic homes, mostly craftsman style-lovely for establishing shots.
This particular home was built in 1909 by notable architect of the time, Frank Tyler, and is craftsman style with a lot of Victorian accents, which is rare!
This historic 1909, 2-story, 12 room home is totally original, with everything period and immaculately designed by Jennifer Laskey of Salvage Beauty Design Co. It's a treasure trove of sensational backdrops that makes you feel transported back to the early 1900s, with architecture that can’t be replicated today.... There are an array of different looks on the two floors. The first floor has darker, creepy sexy moody vibe, while the top floor is a little brighter and lighter and more glamorous.
The house is particularly extraordinary since it has almost everything original: untouched hardwood floors, unique windows with diamond window panes, original fireplace, artful stained glass built-ins, majestic woodwork, doors, cabinetry, tile, hardware, an astounding collection of vintage light fixtures, etc. I brought a handful of updated things back to their historic roots by adding back antique light fixtures, switches, sinks, knobs, hardware, you name it.
The house also has unique and vibrant color, with custom paint with an aged look in many rooms, as well as an exquisite collection of antiques collected from across the country ranging 100-200 years old- an amazing mix of modern glamour and unique vintage furnishings.
There is also a huge front porch complete with swing, enclosed balcony and back patio plus a mid sized yard, creepy vintage garage with old carriage doors, and driveway parking for 5 cars tandem + non restricted street parking and many lots available in walking distance. We have central heat+A/C with an air scrubber/ sanitizer as well as upgraded electrical/ 200 amps.
2500 sq ft, 12 rooms / 3 vintage bathrooms / creepy basement/ walk-in closet- entire dressing room/ attic
